Gurdawara Bhai Karam Singh

Описание: Gurdwara Bahi Karam Singh constructed in the 19th century, boasts a majestic façade, intricate woodwork, and distinctive black-and-white marble floor tiles. The building, with its grand hall, elevated marble platform, and carved wooden galleries, has the names of the donors inscribed on marble plaques.
A spacious Sikh holy site on the banks of Jhelum River in Jhelum is undergoing renovations for the restoration of its grandeur of the past, as the building stands in a dilapidated condition ravaged by floods and negligence over the years.
Launched in May 2024, the project aims to restore the 19th-century Gurudwara to its original splendour, ensuring its long-term preservation and adaptive reuse.
The conservation project will include restoration efforts to preserve the Gurudwara’s original structure, ornate decorations, and intricate carvings. This will involve structural consolidation, roofing, and flooring repairs. Damaged lime plaster will be removed and replaced to enhance structural strength, with new lime plaster applied. Pucca Qalai and stucco work will be undertaken based on historical evidence. Additionally, existing woodwork will be repaired, and new woodwork will be provided where necessary. The conservation project is expected to be finished within 24 months from its initiation date.
